Mum - Do you want dinner?
Me - Hell yes. I haven't warm food in forever.
Mum - Good. I made your favorite.
Me - Awesome. what the hell is my favorite food? [the italics is me thinking] *looks in the pots* Mom, which one of your children do you think I am?
Mum - What? You love kachalo. [Kachalo are yams, i guess]
Me - Nadia loves kachalo. I haven't eaten kachalo since I was like seven.
Mum - You don't like kachalo?
Me - Not so much. But thanks.
While I was in Winnipeg.

Mum - So, I bought you new bed sheets, comforter, pillow cases, etc.
Me - Very cool.
Mum - They're blue. You'll like them.
Me - No, that's Hadia. I hate blue.
Mum - You don't like blue? What colour do you like?
Me - Red. You know, like that one wall in my room.
Mum - That's a girl colour.
Me - It is not!
Mum - Weird.
She listened though. I now have dark red bed sheets which is awesome. And my pillow cases and comforter are a mix of red and orange and hot pink and and black. Which is also awesome. When you put those two together. Mixed reactions. I'm happy with it though. Still, better than blue.
